Well there is one thing that will "stop" it before a vaccine, and that's mutation into a less lethal form like what most likely ended the Spanish flu. Whether that happens or not is to be seen but it's definitely not out of the question.

Well, if you push it below linear it becomes exponential decay! Though you also have to be careful because you could be importing cases from other countries that don't have it under control.

Moonroof 03/15/20 8:06:57 PM #205:	At what point are the containment efforts more detrimental than the virus itself? Lack of food and toiletries, disruption of education and employment, financial disruptions, etc. Seems to me that as a society we need to carry on and not worsen things. Worst case scenario, everyone continues their daily routines and gets sick, in which case theyd be missing school/work anyway but the rest of society wouldnt be hindered.

Only major issue here is the same as most other places: toilet paper, hand sanitizer, and kleenex being out.

Lightning Strikes 03/15/20 8:29:15 PM #209:	guffguy89 posted... I mean, as long as I'm not paying for it doesn't make a difference to me either way. Of course, you're referring to people who maybe don't have insurance and so forth. I imagine that maybe people were being billed initially for COVID-related care, but it sure seems like the US is leaning towards unilaterally making Covid-related care free. My sister is in London, where they have universal health care. It's really great to get care at no cost over there, but the wait times and limitations on selection are a legitimate thing. Also, my sister had a baby over there. It's her second. She had her first in the US. In the US, you get your own private room, a lot more flexibility with scheduling, and more time in the hospital if needed. In the UK, she had to share a room, scheduling was made for her, and they kicked her out earlier than what I wouldve liked (which led the tear in her c-section scar to break open from all the additional movement). Bottom line is that its great that universal healthcare makes healthcare affordable to all, but we need to understand in America, that if that happens, the way we experience healthcare will decline to what we are used to experiencing now as far as service, availability, and selection goes. Completely not true if funded correctly. Pre-austerity wait times were much lower, and they still often are if outside of London. In fact, public care actually outperforms private care because it doesnt need to turn a profit. And having a private room definitely doesnt make it right that having a baby costs $10k+ in the US! I was born and raised in the UK then moved to Ireland which has a much more limited system. The differences are night and day. Any theoretical improvement in care does not make up for the imposed cost (which is heavily capped - nothing like the US) of the Irish system. To the point where people are less healthy because they actively avoid care due to the costs. And the care isnt even better! It is no accident that Ireland is regularly ranked near the bottom of Europe in terms of healthcare. Also: you can still get private healthcare in the UK. So it is not even a correct comparison at all. --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser <cite>Lightning Strikes posted [p:935726070] in Coronaviru...

Kotetsu534 03/15/20 8:49:20 PM #211:	Kinglicious posted... The positive side effects of this are definitely being understated and I feel it needs to be remembered as many of these practices should continue. People are wanting to bring back manufacturing. Borders suddenly matter. People are focusing on health. People are more conscious of unwanted touchings. Employers are focused on health, well being, and what their actions could do. Literally ISIS is scaling back operations to avoid Corona virus. If you're right wing, the list goes even bigger - decrease in abortions, guns and the matter of personal safety becoming a lot more popular - but frankly this is pretty amazing. (Lefties are happy too with the business reforms happening and the focus on healthcare.) There's also likely to be a big increase in the use of working from home resulting in it being properly embedded into most white collar institutions, and better air quality due to reduced car travel in big cities (this has apparently been extremely noticeable in China over the past few weeks). --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information <cite>Kotetsu534 posted [p:935727026] in Coronaviru...

Lack of food and toiletries, disruption of education and employment, financial disruptions, etc. Seems to me that as a society we need to carry on and not worsen things. Worst case scenario, everyone continues their daily routines and gets sick, in which case theyd be missing school/work anyway but the rest of society wouldnt be hindered.
